Internet stopped working

Hi all

I was on the internet on my PC (firefox) and the browser started acting funny - tabs kept opening themselves for no reason and directing me to pages for telephone and internet service providers. Assuming I had some kind of virus or browser hijack, I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it, but no luck. I ran my anti-virus program but it found nothing - it DID ask me to block a program, however, oxrohey.exe (which I cant find any info about on the web), and it was continually asking for permission to run, so i permanently blocked it. I also turned off all unnecessary processes on startup/services in MSCONFIG.

Now, however, my internet no longer works. When opening the browser i get an error message that reads:

'jqsnotify.exe - entry point not found'
'The procedure entry point RtlIpv4AddressToStringExA could not be located in the dynamic link library ntdll.dll'

So, im guessing either i have a [bleep] of a virus my program cant detect, or ive f-ed my system up a bit T_T Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
